Its a lancer; a bloody lancer

studies show that lancer drivers are 98% more likely to die by the hand of an SAU member

cmon most people buy the stock lancer and put a bloody bodykit on it; i couldnt tell the diff from 30metres away.

I always thought it was a factory option as ive seen so many with the exact same thing.

theyre both good cars. test drive both as usual. do you want a big or small car. do you need the extra doors? worst comes to worse flip a coin.

If your going to get an Evo, get a Evo 8 FQ400.

The FQ400, sold through Ralliart UK, produces 302.13 kW, from its 2.0 L 4G63 engine as the result of being specially modified by United Kingdom tuning firms Rampage Tuning, Owen Developments, and Flow Race Engines.

At 202.9 hp (151.3 kW) per litre, it has one of the highest specific output per litre of any roadcar engine.

1/4 mile in 12.1 seconds at 193km/h

Top speed is 283km/h

Top Gear UK did a Power Lap Test and it keeps up with the Lamborghini Murcielago.

It ran a 1 minute 24.8 seconds, which was 4.2 seconds quicker than the Murcielago's time of 1 minute 29 seconds.

FQ 400 Factory Upgrades and already on the car.

Custom built Garrett GT Dual Ball bearing Turbocharger

Owen Developments custom manufactured cast Stainless Steel Exhaust Manifold and Exhaust Elbow

you can be as biased as you like.

but the fact is that an EVO 7 or 8 shits on an R34 GTT from so high that it lands on the skyline as a frozen chunk of space dung.

there is NOTHING that an R34GTT can do that the evo can't do ALOT better/quicker.

what is the price difference?..

perhaps if the price was $15K cheaper for the R34 gtt, and you were willing to spend that extra $15K on the R34GTT, then perhaps it might be OK..ish in comparison to the evo

Then again more vl turbos run 8-9-10's in this country then evo's lolz

obviously when you come to corner you wont need brakes cos the tree or pole will slow you down; in fact 120km/h to 0 in 5cm and 0.5seconds......Better than brembos.

Im just mucking around; the evo is a damn good car but like we've been saying, its always a lancer......a buzzbox that has been added a better engine and driveline.

Pick the car that makes you feel like a 10 year old boy and what you would enjoy looking at too; I would drive my r34 into my living room just to look at if i could.

LOL!

SAU member saff_cossie has a EVO 8 FQ 400, actualy its a MR Edition but with all the FQ 400 upgrades and the Badge on the boot.

4 door Skylines can look awesome too, a lot of ppl do like them too.

But I think Skyline is what you are going for.

The Evo is more a competitor to the GT-R one would think anyway.. if I had the money it would be the one and only Mitsubishi I'd own.

Course due to the proliferation of knock off bodykits, it'd be a real sleeper (the lack of neons and bob jane chrome rims could give it away though)
